Souvenir FAMAS | Pulse (Factory New)

Skin overview

FAMAS | Pulse covers the rifle in sharp fuchsia and violet fragments laid over a dark gunmetal base. In Factory New the pink shards stay saturated and their edges against the grey are crisp across the whole body. This is the cleanest way to see the shattered pattern as intended.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

Other qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

Appearance in Factory New

The FAMAS has a dark gunmetal base covered with angular fuchsia and violet fragments. The carry handle and receiver carry the densest pink areas, while the stock shows a radiating cracked pattern like broken glass.

The paint is intact on every part of the rifle. Pink and violet shards keep full saturation and sharp borders against the grey base. In game the colours look bright on the carry handle and stock. Nothing is chipped on the edges.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Stickers and crafts

Pink, purple and black stickers blend with the fuchsia fragments and dark base. Holographic or foil stickers in violet tones suit the receiver side near the carry handle.

What to check before buying

• Check the float position within the wear grade, since a lower value keeps more pink on the carry handle.
• Inspect the top of the carry handle and the stock edges, where the paint chips first.
• Look at the magazine edges on worn copies, as grey patches there are visible in first person.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, as they change the look and the value of a copy.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the pink shards fully intact.
• Players building a clean sticker craft around saturated colours.
• A choice for those who want the finish in its best form.
